Three people facing charges

People charged after Melfort shooting make court appearance

May 7, 2026 | 5:31 PM

The two people facing firearms charges after a shooting in Melfort last month will soon have their case back in court. 

Shayla Tataquason-Bear of Tisdale will be back in court on Monday, while Austin Patton of Melfort will make an appearance May 19. 

Both were charged following a shooting at a home on Burrows Ave. W. on April 17. 

One person received non-life-threatening injuries. Patton faces charges including reckless discharge of a firearm, while Tataquason-Bear’s charges include possession of a firearm and assaulting a police officer.

Tyrone Rogers of Melfort, who faces theft and other charges after he was arrested at the home, will also be back in court May 19. He was charged in connection to a break-in and a theft from a Melfort business earlier that day.
